Bluette

An ivory field carries an all-over lattice of scrolling vinework supporting palmettes and rosette blossoms rendered in gold, mustard, and soft slate blue. The main border repeats a similar floral vine between narrow guard stripes patterned with small palmettes, echoing the palette of the field. Symmetry is consistent across the four corners, with the pale ground left otherwise open around the dense floral tracery.

Bakshaish

The field is filled with an all-over lattice of small stylized boteh forms rendered in pale blue and ivory against a dark brown ground, arranged in tight vertical columns. A wide plain brown border frames the field, spaced with detached boteh-like pendants in ivory and blue, and edged by a narrow patterned guard stripe of meandering vinework. The overall palette is restrained, limited to deep brown, soft blue, and ivory throughout.

Oushak

An open ivory field carries a symmetrical arrangement of large palmettes and serrated leaves in rust, ochre, and soft gray, radiating outward from a central vertical axis of paired lattice medallions. The main border repeats the same palette in a rhythmic run of blossoms and angular vinework set between narrow guard stripes of small stylized rosettes. Corner devices echo the field's palmette forms, giving the composition a balanced, mirrored quality along both length and width.

Sassoon

Mixed Weave Aubusson

The field is an overall lattice of pale ivory ground, traced with slender scrolling vines that link repeating floral medallions and acanthus-like leaf forms in soft mint green, dusty rose, and taupe. Each lattice cell frames a small palmette or blossom, while larger rosette clusters mark the vertical axis at top, center, and bottom. A wide tan-gold border repeats the same scrolling vine and leaf motifs at a larger scale, bounded by narrow ivory guard stripes patterned with small floral sprigs.

Sassoon

Mixed Weave Aubusson

The pale straw-colored field carries an all-over lattice of curling scrolling vines, anchored along the vertical axis by a repeating palmette rosette in deep brown and cream. Sprays of ivory, sage green, and soft blue blossoms fill the interlaced tendrils, giving the ground a light, airy density despite its symmetry. A narrow patterned guard stripe separates the field from a wide matching border of scrolling foliage and small florettes echoing the same restrained palette.

Lotus

Mixed Weave Aubusson

An open straw-gold field carries a symmetrical arrangement of palmettes and serrated lanceolate leaves in rust, olive, and soft blue, mirrored along the vertical axis so paired blossoms and scrolling stems face one another at the center. A wide border of large floral clusters and sinuous vines, framed by narrow guard stripes with a small repeating trefoil pattern, encloses the composition on all sides. Color throughout stays within a warm palette of amber, terracotta, sage green, and dusty sky blue against the pale ground.

Bardini

Flat Weave Technique

A pale straw-colored ground carries a lattice of crimson and burgundy strapwork enclosing lobed medallions filled with small floral rosettes in muted rose, sage, and taupe. The wide outer border repeats large stylized blossoms and serrated leaf forms within a narrower guard band of interlocking geometric lozenges. At the center, a diamond formed of scalloped panels anchors the composition, its curling vinework echoed throughout the open field.

Autumn Meadow

Flat Weave Technique

The field, a soft olive-gold ground, carries an allover lattice of curling vinework linking palmettes and rosette medallions rendered in ivory, pale blue-green, and honey tones. A broad chocolate-brown border encloses this pattern with sweeping serrated leaves and scrolling tendrils, framed by narrower guard stripes of small floral trefoils in cream and gold. The overall palette stays warm and muted, with the deeper brown of the border setting off the lighter tonalities of the field.
